My fungus keeps coming back too. It's now in isolated areas only though, not all over. Mostly rust. Along the creek its the worst - where I get standing water and the roots are probably struggling for air. Some around my trees where it competes with tree roots.
I am going to spot spray this time.
A Heritage app for me is like $100, so I try not to do that too often hahahaha

^have you two tried lowering the HOC? I know it sounds counter intuitive, but with all the rain (and late evening rain) we had I slowly lowered it to 2in. The spots that were showing signs of fungus for me are now gone without the need of fungicide. Of course I'm not in a reno so YMMV.

HLG: I will be spot spraying now too. Just from the perspective that there are very clear areas where the problem persists. Oddly, some are full sun, some are shade. A few are adjacent to bare areas where I plugged this spring. One is in an area that came in nicely. I can't find any common factor, other than all areas have received light, frequent, Philes-y fertilization this year. Nor have I been able to identify the pathogen. I am continuing proactive, Serenade treatments as well. Hopefully this won't re-occur with the normal Nitrogen schedules in a 2-year post reno world.
G-man: I actually have raised my cut from 2 to 3 inches thinking that might help. First 2 rounds from 2" cut, this one at 3". Who knows...
